In summary

From earlier knolle; first attested in the early sixteenth century. The earliest attested meaning in Dutch is "turnip" (now obsolete, the derived knolraap having become the standard term), which appears to be the result of a semantic narrowing from a broader meaning "bulging protrusion"; compare for example the cognates Old High German knollo (“rocky outcrop; lump”), English knoll (“hill”).
